30 participants in 3 patient groups

SNAG GROUP

Experimental group

Description:

The SNAG group received a treatment based on sustained apophyseal glides in a postero-anterior direction on C2 with a dose of three series of ten repetitions each, combined with active cervical extension.

Treatment:

Procedure: sustained natural apophyseal glides

SHAM SNAG GROUP

Sham Comparator group

Description:

The placebo SNAG group received a simulation of the contact used for the SNAGs, without any vertebral glide, and with an active cervical extension.

Treatment:

Procedure: SHAM SNAG

CONTROL GROUP

No Intervention group

Description:

The control group did not receive any type of intervention, they only waited for four minutes, sat down on a chair
